Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Celene Gogerty, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Greer and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Badding, J. (12 pages)
An employee appeals a district court ruling on judicial review affirming the denial of workers’ compensation benefits. OPINION HOLDS: We find there was substantial evidence to support the commissioner’s determination that Robert Shrum’s neck and right shoulder conditions were not causally related to his employment, as well as the commissioner’s denial of permanent partial disability benefits for Shrum’s right-arm injury and alternate or ongoing medical care for his neck and right shoulder.
